| - After debating on where to eat for lunch, a friend and I decided to try this cafe out. It was simple, yet classy, but what else would you expect from an eatery inside Neiman Marcus.
As soon as we sat down, our waiter came over and took our drink orders. He also served us their famous puff pastry with a side of strawberry butter and some kind of broth. Since we have never been here before, we didn't know what the broth was for. We looked around to see if anyone was doing anything with theirs (We felt out of place as it was...), and didn't see anything, so we just left it. We later found out that we were supposed to di the pastry in it. Anyway, I LOVED the puff pasty. It was light and delicious. Perfect little starter! My friend didn't care much for it though. Oh well.
I ordered the Chicken Paillard. I couldn't pass up all the yummy veggies in it! All in all, it was good, but nothing too special. However, at under 500 calories, I really couldn't complain. They tell you how many calories are in each item on their menu, which helps with eating "healthy". Friend ordered the turkey wrap (I think), and she seemed to enjoy that was well.
Service was decent. I liked that the waiter wasn't overbearing, yet our drinks were filled every time they were about half-way done. He was attentive and very nice. The staff wasn't snobby or anything. The lady that sat next to us didn't like what she ordered and he switched it out, no questions asked.
If anything, I will say that the cafe is a little pricey, but again, what would one expect from a cafe in Neiman.
Would I come back? Sure, why not. Is this the absolute best place to eat at Fashion Show? Probably not, but it's definitely worth a try once.
